Making the World Make Itself
By Henry Neufeld PamBG quotes a letter that using some wonderful phraseology with regard to the process of creation, but also related to theodicy. I can’t access the letter itself due to a subscription requirement, but the part Pam quotes is quite good.
I like these two sentences particularly well:
Suppose instead that he made the world make itself.
. . .
Be the incarnation suggests that, in Jesus, God knew by experience, not just observation, what it was to be rejected, and hunted down; . . .
Yes!

Interesting perspective, and one that makes a lot of sense.
Thank you for the link.
The bit I omitted was specific to answering the letter in question from the previous week and seemed distracting rather than enlightening.
Pam: It looked like a pretty complete thought. I’m just in the habit of pointing out when I used secondary sources.
